Re: [U2] [UV] UniOLEDB driver 64-bit windows and installers (take 50 or something)
Sorry John,
I dropped the ball on that one, I was indeed aware of that, and yes got
past this entire portion months ago w/ my vendor. I installed the 11.1.x
client that is 64-bit on the 64-bit server, the download was a Nov 2011
release, and as best as I know the newest thing I was back out a little bit ago
and didn't see anything newer I could try. As stated ODBC would be fine if
Microsoft SQL Server 2008 allowed that... when I tried the old Connection
string I was using in an OpenDataSource directly I was getting an error about a
single threaded apartment model not being valid. That led me to believe my
install was messed up and found the DLL was not even present in the correct
place, and more hours of fun ;)
The "older" string that the other machine uses returns an error like:
Msg 7308, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'IBM.UniOLEDB' cannot be used for distributed queries because
the provider is configured to run in single-threaded apartment mode.
... and ... doesn't actually show up as a provider anyway, so I was
reaching.
Thank you for the feedback,

To use 32 bit UniVerse client software on a 64 bit Windows platform, you need
to set up the DSN with odbcad32.exe from syswow64 (not system32). If your
client software is 64 bit then you need UniVerse 11.1 whIch has 64 bit client
software, and updated SQL/ODBC as well.
Hope this helps.

Re: [U2] [UV] UniOLEDB driver 64-bit windows and installers (take 50 or something)
Thanks Bill,
Personally if it's windows, I normally just make a "new" Text document,
then rename the file "Test {whatever}.udl" and the GUI usually has that
associated to what is now called "Microsoft Data Link" file format, but I swear
it used to be something else... anyway, you can get your provider tabs, Data
Source Tabs, Advanced, etc and I'm assuming Microsoft bought it's been in there
since at least XP. Then pick your provider and test away. With this specific
issue I'm having though, I'm now able to get the uvODBC 64-bit driver to work
that way:
Provider=MSDASQL.1;Password=xx;Persist Security Info=True;User
ID=Server\user;Data Source=Data123
However that MsDASQL.1 provider, that's not working in SQL Server w/
that same set of variables, nor can I use OpenDataSource, or OpenRowSet, I'm
running out of things to try. I swear I did this two or three years ago w/ my
current server ;) Tried the old IBM.UniOLEDB driver I had before, I've tried a
few ways. I actually got a Linked Server to almost work using...
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver
@server = N'Linked_Server_Name'
,@srvproduct = N'UniVerse'
,@provider = N'MSDASQL'
,@datasrc=N'ODBC_DSN_Name1'
... but this lets me expand the catalog and see the "VIEWS" from the
account in question, but not query a darn thing. Any query gives me:
...[Table_or_View] contains no columns that can be selected or the current user
does not have permissions on that object.
I hate to write a CLR trigger/addon for SQL just to read and write
changes for some adhoc stuff that we've never written back in UniVerse. The
reads and writes really seemed to finally be getting faster too from my
UniVerse server too.

John:
1. There are some third-party ODBC tools available.
2. I do something like this now with Adobe's ColdFusion... a free developer
version of CF is available for download from Adobe.
3. Rocket has some tech manuals that cover this area.
4. When I was troubleshooting this with CF, I wrote a little Java connection

[U2] U2 UniVerse UCI Config Editor failure msvcr71.dll
Hi Everyone, I've been having some trouble with Client Installs on some of my newer machines, and not just one or two workstations this is more like a half dozen. They're all getting the same error, and I've been unable to find any good answers online, any ideas? The dialog is: Caption: UCI Config Editor: UCICfgED.exe - Unable to Locate Component Text is: This application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem. I get the error from installing the u2 UniVerse 11.1 client tools disc (and I tried 10.3 my last set too) specifically the UniVerse ODBC driver. Then attempting to run the UCI edit to setup the config and I get the Error at the Splash screen about said Microsoft shared DLL not being found, yet each machine has the DLL in the IBM folder from the install, so it doesn't seem to be an issue w/ the install having entirely failed. Attempt re-install, uninstall and then a re-install, none of which change the outcome. Thank you in Advance if you've dealt with this, John J.

Re: [U2] UV ODBC Driver Install Problem {unclassified}
I wish I didn't need to go back this far, but I was on Vacation (and
decided the group didn't need to hear about it every day, and I didn't need my
own T-shirt either. ;)
My problem actually had nothing to do with 64-bit as Mack pointed out
in his follow-up post. My problem with the uv admin tool was solved when I
finally got patches from my Vendor for UniVerse 10.3, UniVerse 10.2 tools just
did not work with the Java (jre) it came with on a 32-bit 2008 Windows Server,
period (in our environment anyway). I tried it in 6 environments, and 3 were
fresh installs, none worked, but the Informix 9.6 tools worked great ;) My
admin tool finally works in 10.3 though! Yay!
On a Similar note, I have a huge memory leak with the 10.2 ODBC against
Microsoft SQL Server for 2008 (Std) sp1 and 2008 R2 Express w/ Adv Services as
well, that takes my SQL Server to its knees about twice a week if I use a
Linked Server in a Solution, this problem didn't occur in 2005 Dev or 2005 Std
or Enterprise when I used linked Servers. I have not tried getting all my
clients to 10.3 ODBC yet though as I just got the patches before I left for
Vacation. I personally really hate the world of Drivers *sigh* My new
solution is going to be to only use UniOLE calls via .NET and ignore the ODBC
and all Linked Servers all together for Raw Data pulls form our UniVerse box.

Subject: [U2] [UV] UV ODBC Driver Install Problem {unclassified}
Morning all
I am having a problem with installing the UV ODBC 10.3 client on a
Windows 2003 R2 SP2 64-bit server. The Rocket availability matrix shows
that this server version is supported by 10.3 client. I am trying to
install the ODBC drivers from the UniVerse Client 10.3 CD, which has
been copied onto the servers D drive, whilst logged on as a local
administrator.
The install completes without error and there are no related events in
the application or system logs. After a server reboot, the ODBC Admin
tool shows the default User DSN's UV/ODBC Sales Sample and UV/ODBC
Service Sample and these are configured with the IBM UniVerse ODBC
Driver. However when you try to configure them, you get pop up windows
with the error messages "The setup routines for the IBM UniVerse ODBC
Driver ODBC driver could not be found. Please reinstall the driver" and
"Driver's ConfigDSN, ConfigDriver, or ConfigTranslator failed Component
not found in the registry". Clicking on the Drivers Tab shows that only
some SQL ODBC drivers are installed. I have tried re-installing the
drivers to no effect.
I checked the registry and the drivers are all listed, including the
Microsoft drivers that should also be showing in the drivers tab of the
ODBC Admin tab. However when I check the System32 folder, the uvodbc.dll
driver is not there. I copied in the uvodbc.dll driver from another
installation but that made no difference. I suspect it needs registering
but I don't know how to do that outside of an install program.
I found an email on this list from 9 Jun 09 where John Wahl had a
problem with the UniAdmin tool on W2k8 server and Michael Dallaire noted
he had a similar problem with the UV ODBC drivers on a 64 bit system.
However, there wasn't a lot more detail. Can anyone elaborate?
Any help or suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks.

[U2] The opposite of Export is.. sometimes not Import...
Off Topic but has anyone else noticed the Trend for the last three months is "Help my boss, customer, friend" wants to get ALL his columns, all his data or all his junk out of U2, and I'm not worried about getting it back in... I'm in the opposite boat, I want to leave it in there, and I'm VERY comfortable with SQL Server, I'd rather they work together than choose one technology over the other. My Question today is, if I'm writing a quick "view" in SQL Server I can write a nice little function to strip a field to just it's alpha numeric characters. Then I'll be using this on a webpage to strip the Input of it's non-alphanumeric characters as well, thus showing more matches when values are entered for (in this case) part numbers were entered in an odd fashion. Example: User enters "1-2-3-4" My data for a Part Number, might have 1-2-34 12-34 AND 123-4 My systems on the Intranet (Employees only) would say "no matches found" I'm not ok with this response. I think a direct match should be done first, but THEN additional searches are done, I even have a fuzzy one off Search using the SQL single Char replace (using _ based on the LEN of the input) and then a massive union query. However I want to do this in our UniVerse system instead, as that's where the data truly resides, and so I would hope would be the fastest place to run this type of search. I have no idea how to write an I type or Paragraph or Subroutine that will take a string in as the Variable and then pass back another string stripped to the AlphaNumeric only response so that I can search it. I'm assuming a Subroutine would do the trick and then I can use that Sub in an Dict Entry as an Type I, no? Where to begin? >.< Thanks for your time, - John J.

[U2] Speaking of MsSQL 2008 ...
Not to tread over the same path for a thousandth time (oh this poor path), but has anyone actually been able to get SQL Server 2005 or 2008 to actually do a linked server directly to UniVerse and still get that link to work when setting up SQL Agent jobs on the Microsoft SQL Server to run at night? I had one working on a test server for a while, but it would only run in the Management Studio when I manually ran the SQL, it would never work at night using Jobs in the SQL Server Agent, so I gave up. I've never gotten SQL Server to directly connect in my office, so they still have their half dozen work-arounds here, all using things like Microsoft Access and Linked Tables, then finally linking those Access Databases to SQL Server. I've tried to make changes to some of their very duct-tape like solutions, but I too failed to get their UniVerse system to be read by SQL Server using any connection type for that matter, including Mecki's SSIS concept. I have one machine here that is running SQL Server 2005 Developer edition, which seems to have far more Providers and has had more luck connecting to UniVerse in my tests, but once I try to do anything via a nightly job, the same queries that may have worked for me manually would fail to execute. Of the 3 servers I have two running Windows Server 2003, and one is 2008 Std 32-bit. The 2008 box is also the UniVerse machine, which runs 10.2.x. I'm fairly certain if the Linked Server idea would work, it's an issue w/ either using the wrong provider or having a bad string for the Connection, but everything I have personally read has failed (at least for UniVerse).

Re: [U2] Basic Developer Toolkit - Eclipse SDK
I have to agree with Doug, I spend my entire day in Ms Visual Studio, save the modifications I do for our UniVerse system. I started writing add-ins for my Visual Studio to do conversion for things like UniVerse dates to Windows dates, etcetera. I don't think I did it because I felt I had to make them, but because I didn't know there was a tool like BASIC Developer Toolkit, or anything else for that matter that fit into how I work now. Even the U2 .NET add-on doesn't really seem like it's the perfect solution from what I've seen so far. Perhaps what you have all just explained really does say it all. This sounds like the perfect spot for a decent sized open source group to spring up and fill the hole, making a tool or the many plug-ins required to fill the void you're describing. Since I had never even heard of Eclipse (mostly because I live 95% of the time in the Ms world), I think it needs more preaching and tweaking so it speaks for itself. ------- John J.

You will see MS programmers in Visual Studio all day, day after day. You will see Java programmers do the same in Eclipse. Oracle programmers are no different. Why are UniBasic programmers so different? Because we have not had a tool that we can live in since the dawn of "Pick". When a CEO looks at me coding in AE/ED at their site, they invariable ask if UniBasic is a DOS tool. So, when a SQL server software vendor comes by to sell them on merits of their new software, the invariable listen and sometimes buy. If we want to sell this database to management so that they realize the power of U2, we better show them the we have a great tool set like those MS programmers. We cannot just talk the talk, we have to walk the walk. I know I don't have all of the power tools yet for Eclipse. I still have to login into the database to perform whatever, but I know that this "madness" has to stop. Whether it is SOX compliance or by management degree, we programmers need to stay out of the database. I know the U2 world is different, but why am I typing "C/VAR/VAR1/G100" or my favorite "=t 31`R 12`FI`=t". The power of Eclipse is the plug-ins. I do have other tools but they are plug-ins to Eclipse. I have my HTML editor from Eclipse, my JavaScript editor from Adobe, my UniBasic editor from U2logic, my Web Developer from U2logic, CVS from Eclipse, my Resizer from U2logic, my report writer is BIRT from Eclipse, and someday other U2 plug-ins from whomever.

[U2] OT: Pick pocket guide
Reminds me of the book, Eats Shoots and Leaves<http://www.amazon.com/Eats-Shoots-Leaves-Tolerance-Punctuation/dp/1592402038/ref=ed_oe_p>, how easy it is to hear what you want to read into something that isn't meant by the author if they don't use proper punctuation. I really do wonder how often people have similar issues with a book title, or a programmer document. I had a friend write a document called "ODBC on the Fly", and so his image was the Acronym on the side of a zoomed in Fly. ________ John J.

Re: [U2] UniVerse Admin Tool for Window
I thought the same thing for a long time, but everything else works, everything in that tool, Accounts, Backup, Config Editor, Data Sources... etc. The only two things that do not seem to get good data from (I'm assuming the uv RPC?) is the "Users" and "Locks" modules of the tool. My tool's version is UniAdmin 1.3.6, and I haven't seen it mentioned as NOT working on 2008 in any tools, or any bug reports, that's why I was hoping the User Group might know. On top of this, we had calls in before we decided to do the install from our IBM rep and he was told to go ahead and do it, it should all work. So far it all has, and I've been more than happy, for a 99% Microsoft guy this makes me shut my mouth ;) So far it's been a dream to run, so it's more just an annoyance then a real bug in my book to not have that GUI version of the Admin tool running. Was just hoping one of the list gurus had perhaps seen this issue come up before ;) -- John J.
